For racing colts & stallions we use vaseline or baby oil. For an individual who is big, has ability but is not well bred enough for the breeding barn, we use the snip :D Giggles... You sound like Thomas, my Grandfather. Not good to use, have the snip for any animals.

Not really. It's a part of having a working intact male. Same for a gun dog. Yes, they do chaff. Fact of anatomy. You can try vaseline before he goes off to race/training. Smear the area thoroughly. Only thing is post-training, racing, you might feel like wiping him clean. The skin there does get irritated. There is anothe product called Bag Balm ( shall not describe that further *winks*.) Do you belong to any Sled club? Someone there could have more info. There are some horse products that could be used. But I am not current with their safety. Make sure it is in fact chaffing and no other reason. :)

Fabulous shoot! I can perceive the gal moving forwards so clearly.

Actually it has cotton/lycra lining. Dutch friend of mine who breeds Wire hair & Smooth Vizslas trialled it for 2 years. Here's a URL to give some other pov http://www.dfordog.co.uk/medical-pet-shirts.html

WOW!!! Suspended in full flight Fantastic

I believe it is arrogance and belief that we are top of the animal kingdom as it were. Our detachment from other creatures leads to ignorance, a case of not knowing (or caring) what we don't know. Paraphrased in that awfully horrible saying ( imnsho) I am alright Jack. I can do what I want with complete disregard to the consequences.

pffttt. What would annoy me is if the dogs had reactions to the dyes. It would also be a lot of work to remove the stains given we are in Winter.

here we are.... Straight from the Husky's mouth via his loverly Daddy.. http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/258938-post-surgery-exercise/ http://www.medicalpetshirts.com/index.php/en/medical-pet-shirts-en Hope this helps. :)

99% sure that Yonjuro posted about this recently. BRB with a link for you. :)

Just my .2 cents, doses of TLC that the dog is getting from you must be part of the equation. we all know it will take time, but you are doing such a grand job to help this boy.

We need a LIKE button.

In a word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RATS. Not acceptable to happen. Like I suggested, I would speak to them before washing the harness. I would have little to no expectation of sea water causing this issue.

Serket, Maybe before washing it, you contact them. Let them know of the issues and see what they suggest. I would be less than happy if blue stripes turned up on my dog. I was considering their red harness. I shall wait now pending more info from you.

I am so sorry to read this, scarlett rose. It's a horror of a disease, for sure. Your darling is now without pain and free waiting at The rainbow Bridge. Hugs & Love

Modelling a mighty fine tweed cap? Then he needs new caps. Needs brain leakage stopped.

Some humans are slow to learn.

What???????????????????????????????????????????? So unfair.

Not heard that the forecast is so bad that people might pull out. May be some who do not go. As I said, it's the last day of a week of shows. Some will take the opportunity to be there.

Last day of a great Show program is on tomorrow. For your interest, there are going to be 5 Brittanys listed to be shown. Below is the Show flyer. http://www.dogzonline.com.au/event-diary/documents/7069_SHD_5292014155736.pdf :D

Dingos and Velociraptors... "Clever girl!" :D

What!! And spoil some human's fun in order to preserve animals. What a shocking concept. But but but, we want to drive our big 4-wheel drives where we want. why should we care about dumb dingoes The very idea

Bravo!!!!

Black Dog carob dog treats are known to be consumed by humans. Daddy found them in the jar in the pantry. He forgot the colour-coded lid (red). Had a few. Then complained to me. I said 'Soz Honey, I got the generic cheapies.' Neither dog was impressed to have less rations of treats.

Vale, Penny, Maysleith Musicale. You have earned your wings. A life so well lived, a dog so very much loved. A gem of a friend. Race free at The Rainbow Bridge, Penny.

So true.
